460ETCMC

Connect Modbus TCP/IP Devices to an Allen-Bradley PLC

Get Your Modbus TCP/IP Server Devices Connected Directly to the Data Table of your Allen-Bradley PLC
The 460ETCMC moves data between up to 32 Modbus TCP/IP Server devices and up to 5 different Allen-Bradley PLCs. It’s a simple tool that allows you to use the plethora of cost effective Modbus TCP/IP devices available in your Allen-Bradley PLCs.

Best of all the product is Made in the USA, is always in stock and comes with 5 year warranty.

How Does the Data Move In and Out of the PLC?
You allocate two areas of tags or register blocks in your Allen-Bradley PLC. One area is a user defined set of write only tags or register blocks accepting data from your Modbus TCP/IP devices. The other area is full of read only tags or register blocks to send data to your Modbus TCP/IP devices. You directly map Modbus TCP/IP register and coil data into read and write locations in the data table of your Allen-Bradley PLC.

It’s really that simple. Need to modify your data as it passes from one protocol to the other? No problem. Each data mapping you apply can be modified with up to 3 mathematic functions. Add 4 to a value, multiply by 4 and divide by 10 with ease.

Why Use Real Time Automation as a Gateway Supplier?
The 460ETCMC provides an option to access Modbus TCP/IP Server devices without having to upgrade your PLC or get an expensive in rack solution. While there are certainly a number of other companies offering stand alone gateways, there is no one who provides the level of support and service that you receive from RTA.

When you call, a live person answers the phone. When you talk with sales, you will get honest answers and recommendations even if that means recommending someone else’s solution. When you get support, it is from an engineer who had a hand in the product’s development, and support doesn’t require a ticket or 24 hour wait. We are unashamed of the fact that we are a smaller company because that means you mean a lot more to us.

Testimonial

We provide different PLC platforms depending on customer requirements and I have found the 460MSA and 435NBX gateways from RTA to be user-friendly and have cut down our project configuration time considerably. The web interface saves time in not having to lug a laptop out to the field to make changes and the user manuals are straight forward and informative.
